Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Massey, of
lower Fort Mill, are spending
several weeks with relatives in
Jacksonville and Kissimmee, Fla.
Temperatures throughout the
country during the present week
will be near the season's average
and rains and snows will be
below the normal over most of
the States, according to the
national weather bureau's weekly
forecast announced Sunday
night. Over the southern half
of the country the week will be
one of generally fair weather.
Lancaster county has a force
at work, constructing a road
from the Bailes bridge road, just
across Sugar creek from Fort
Mill, leading to Barber's bridge
road, near Mr. Osmond Barber's
residence. The work includes
? I?: J ? '
a iuiiui KI^C aciuw &
branch. The route to Charlotte
from here will be shortened two
or three miles.
Thursday, last, was the coldest
day ot' the winter, the theomometer
registering: 21 degrees,
which was three degrees lower
than on any day this season.
Comparatively warm weather has
prevailed throughout I his section
for the last several wee!;s and
the cold winds ol Thursday and
$" sleet ol Friday was keenly felt.
Local coal men l^ive been rushed
to till orders for several days.

The York cotton mill, located
on the outskirts of Yorkville, is
being advertised for sale under
order of court. The sale will be
made in front of the court house
door on February 28. and the
upset price is fixed at $160,000.
The York mill is equipped with
more than 20,000 spindles and
for a time after it began operations
was a money-maker, hut
since 1901 it is said to have
yielded little or no returns to
the stockholders.

interested in t he drainage proposition
and are conferring with
the Mecklenburg authorities with
the purpose of taking up the
work at the State line and continuing
it to the river. Aside
from the land benefits, it is hoped
to obtain a freer passage for the
sewerage from Oharloite, which
has long been a thorn in the
flesh of the people along the
stream.
Tony, the faithful old family
horse of Magistrate J. W. McElhaney,
is no more. Old Tony
was 26 years old and for ten
years or longer was used as a
livery horse by Mr. McIClhaney.
Becoming too old lor this service,
he was used only for light driving
and was highly prized by
members of the Magistrate's
family. The old horse was
among the first animals bought
by Mr. McElham-y when he
% opened business iu Fort Mill
years ago and his death Saturday
night is much regretted by hit
owner.
John L. Hurley, the well know r
temperance worker, deliverer
three strong lectures in the thret
local churches last Sunday. Ii
the morning he was heard at th?
Presbyterian church, in #tht
afternoon at the Baptist church,
L -i J
/
and in the evening at the Methodist
church. Mr. Harley was
pastor of the Fort Mill Methodist
church some twenty years
ago and is well remembered in
in this section. His lectures Sunday
attracted large crowds to
i the churches.
f acts About Easter.
It is now just a little more 1
; than one month until Easter, the ;
date being March 23. Not until
the year 2009 will Faster come- 1
as early again as it does this ;
year, nor has it occurred as early
I as M irch 23rd since 1856, 57 ,
; years ago. ,
A great many things have hapj
pened since Easter day came so
I early ?what will have hanneneri
1 when it comes so early again?
It is possible to know what has
taken place during the 57
years that are passed, but what
i will come before the arrival of
2009 is a closed book.
Lent began this year February
5th and this is the earliest com|
ing of Ash Wednesday and Easter
Day between now and the end
of this century. It is also interesting
to note how late in the
year Easter occurred and will occur.
In 1886 it occurred as late
as April 25, and this is the latest
it has occurred since that time.
It will not come so late as April
25th again until the year 1943.
